When the sun never sets on your empire, you’ll require proper shade—here’s the answer. Our faithful reproduction pith helmet reflects the iconic style associated with British colonial and foreign service history. Produced in Vietnam by skilled artisans, the body of the helmet is crafted from natural pith (tree heart) in the manner of a century ago, designed to withstand intense sunlight as well as rainfall. Features include a canvas exterior, vented crown, interior shade cloth, and an adjustable faux-leather sweatband. One size fits most, accommodating up to approximately size 7 3/8; it may also be worn slightly higher on larger head sizes for a comfortable fit. Note: Due to manufacturer variations, color may vary slightly from the picture.
